Abstract

In this paper, evapotranspiration prediction is done using Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) of Fuzzy Logic.For the prediction of evapotranspiration, mean temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and net radiation is taken as inputs to the fuzzy inference system. To check the efficiency of the FIS model, the results were compared with the FAO-56 Penman Monteith (FPM-56) method. FIS model has given the coefficient of determination (R2) 0.979. Results indicated that, FIS model has better efficiency for prediction of evapotranspiration.
